State Department: US to continue cooperation with Russia on Syria

22
The US State Department said that, despite the differences, cooperation with Russia in Syria will continue. It was noted that such interaction is necessary to liquidate the terrorist group "Islamic State" (* prohibited in the Russian Federation) and other groups recognized as terrorist UN Security Councils.

This kind of statement was made against the background of another aggravation of Russian-American relations in connection with the introduction of a new anti-Russian sanctions package, approved the day before by US President Donald Trump.

State Department: US to continue cooperation with Russia on Syria


RIA News reports that the statement was made by the representative of the US Department of State before the scheduled meeting between Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

It should be noted that recently Russia and the United States have agreed on mutual support in terms of creating so-called de-escalation zones in Syria. In particular, according to Syrian opposition sources, an additional de-escalation zone is created in the SAR. It is located in the province of Homs in the area of ​​Tel Bis and El Rastan.

It can be stated that the USA is ready to continue active cooperation with the Russian Federation only where it fully corresponds to their interests. As an example, the space industry.

    Everything can be expected from these strange people, they can cooperate with the country to which sanctions were applied the day before. By the way, why not show Germany the fact that it is buying rocket engines from Russia, thereby developing the military industry of the axis of evil?

      Germany? Present to America? If we take into account the fact that more than 50 thousand American soldiers are stationed in Germany, Germany can only timidly squeak and sluggishly toss, but present nothing - it can’t)))

    Everything is in the American style - where it is beneficial for ourselves, there you can forget about sanctions. From behind the ocean, only infamy, unjustified meanness and, of course, arrogance creeps toward Russia.

    It’s necessary to be such shameless insolents, you see, they will continue to cooperate with us ... but do not gentlemen remind you of this one old joke about super impudence: "... shit on the doorstep of a neighbor, ring his doorbell and ask for toilet paper. .. "? This is the whole "top" of the United States, as they say "... this is only business and nothing personal ..."!

    Continued cooperation on Syria by the United States is necessary for one reason: to achieve the intended goal of destroying the SAR, dismembering, leaving the zones of influence behind America, so that the process of destabilization does not stop, so that there is a reason to accuse the Russian Federation of provocations with the death of the population organized by the US secret services.
    If today the Western coalition is forced to leave the SAR, which, incidentally, is illegally located on the territory of a sovereign state from the point of view of international law, then the Syrians themselves will deal with the IS with the help of allies, and not the interventionists, which is the West. The people are tired of a long war, the Syrians want a peaceful life, at least any people in any country need to not violate the right to life. However, the United States does not recognize the right of the peoples of the world, it is so democratic when people are starving and dying.

      You are right that the United States seeks to gain a foothold in Syria and relies on its dismemberment, however, at a certain stage, the presence of de-escalation zones is also beneficial for us and the Syrians. Now there is the destruction of the irreconcilable i.e. completely frostbitten militants, who, due to their stupidity and illiteracy, could not read the American instructions on how to properly repaint from ISIS to moderate opposition, i.e. rename and go under the new flags. When this dust is killed and "opposition forces" are formed, they will be concentrated in these very zones of de-escalation, and not throughout Syria. Well, there the strategists will figure out who and what violated first)))

        Dmitry, from your comment, it also turns out that the creation of de-escalation zones is a continuation of the conflict, only updated. The forces supported by the United States, as practice shows, are always far from harmless. The difference between "frostbitten" and "moderate" barmels is that the moderate ones are US-controlled and paid, and the frostbitten ones are contained in the idea of ​​the Islamic State. Terrorists are both subgroups.

    It’s worth pitying Trump - a peasant got specifically - and introduce sanctions and be friends with Russia ... What’s called-and eat a fish and not choke on bones. I hope he still has "methods against Kostya Sap ... stunned by his insolence, Congress and the Senate. I don’t believe that he just took it and surrendered - now yes, it’s going with the flow ... But .. ... somehow will then get out.

    Once America declares a trade, diplomatic or any other war, it is necessary to immediately strike back a sensitive blow that can calm the enemy to prevent his further arrogance. (Close all US-funded NGOs, drive out all diplomats leaving one consulate, stop cooperation in the space industry, etc.)

    ... despite the disagreements, interaction with Russia in Syria will continue. ... necessary for the elimination of the Islamic State terrorist group (* prohibited in the Russian Federation) and other groups recognized as terrorist UN Security Councils

    Those. they do not intend to stop supporting terrorists in Syria, bomb the positions of the Syrian army and kill civilians. They intend to continue actions to destroy Syria and organize chaos throughout the Middle East.
